Apartment vacation rentals in Berkeley

We returned to the Bay Area from the East Coast for a family event - and were lucky to find Charlie and Jenny’s place very close to where family lives. Communication was amazing even before the trip began . The apartment is on the bottom of Charlie and Jenny’s house and very private . There is a separate parking space, which is a a huge bonus in the area. The living space is VERY roomy - much more so than I expected from pics! SUPER clean , and SUPER well stocked, with lots of personal touches . Loved the kitchen and bathroom !!! I had to do some work during the week and there was a woke space as well. Two comfy bedrooms with VERY comfortable beds, extra blankets, pillows, pool/beach towels - you name it. We met both Charlie and Jenny in person and they were so lovely to chat with . Charlie gave lots of great restaurants info ! If you travel with family or kids- they also will find so many toys, games- even bathtub toys ! Since we will return to the area, I would absolutely return!

We had a great stay at this Airbnb. Everything is working as your are expecting. I will recommended to my Family & Friends.

We really enjoyed our stay, the place was quiet, easy to find, and we had a smooth check in/out. The price for our stay also felt like a steal and was cheaper than any hotel room in the area. The place was new, clean, and had new appliances, internet, TV, all the general amenities you may want. Perfect place for a couple looking to stay in the Bay Area and not break the bank. We will definitely stay here again whenever we come back to Castro Valley, thanks Gabriel!

I enjoyed my time at Audrey’s place. They are centrally located and the backyard is a beautiful place to work or unwind. Audrey, Jordie, and the pups were very friendly and hospitable. I would highly recommend their place for any guest visiting Oakland.

Alexander’s place was the perfect stay for my family. His place was clean and well organized. The kitchen pots and pans were in great condition and the kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were extremely comfortable. We definitely recommend staying here!

Our stay at Albina’s guest suite was very peaceful and a perfect place to rest our heads while exploring SF! Great location in a quiet neighborhood, walkable to local restaurants and cafés. About a 20 minute walk to Golden Gate Park. Lovely views of the ocean to watch the sunset, we used the firepit on the deck which was lovely! Albina was a kind and gracious host.

Tina is amazing and communication is always quick! We have stayed here numerous times and love it! Thanks so much Tina!

I stayed here for a month and it was great, I highly recommend! As described and seen in the pictures. Annie was helpful and ensured I had everything I needed. I think this apartment is perfect for 1-2 people with a child or small/medium-sized pet. Clean and cozy with nice, warm lighting. The bed was comfy, kitchen was small but well-equipped, living room was roomy with a medium-sized couch, and bathroom more than sufficient. I loved relaxing on the deck as well! The neighborhood is hilly and beautiful, close to bus/ferry/restaurants/stores. Touristy downtown, but not as much in the immediate vicinity. I walked A LOT with my dog and enjoyed it, but the hills can be steep! Definitely a very safe area. The only “con” is, in my opinion, it’s just a bit expensive for the size. However, I understand it’s in a pretty wealthy neighborhood and am sure Airbnb fees/taxes account for a decent part of the cost. Suffice to say, this is a once-in-a-long-while stay for me. Hopefully that’s fair.

Annie and Alex‘s Airbnb is wonderful! It’s in a great location, well designed, clean and modern, and equipped with all of the items you would want in the kitchen. You have access to a beautiful outdoor garden with dining table and chairs. Location! While you can walk to the best shopping for fruits and vegetables, there is free street parking as well. BART is a quick 13 minute walk! Lastly, Annie and Alex are wonderful, thoughtful hosts. We would highly recommend their AirBnb for either short or longer stays

We had a lovely stay and glad to have booked this place for our first time in San Francisco. Place was clean with a good collection of books, location was beautiful, and really appreciate the tap for filtered drinking water.

Dennis & Tiiu's place was perfect for our needs. We stayed for a week while in town visiting our son, who lives only a few minutes away, so it was a perfect location for us. The location was peaceful and quite. The house was cozy and suitable for two people. It was a little smaller than it looked in the pictures but again, it worked for the two of us. The amenities were as described. We would definitely stay again.

Everything as described. Well-stocked kitchen, perfectly capable of cooking meals. Lots of space. ~15 min walk to Berkeley Bowl, which is a great place to pick up groceries. Some reviews mention hearing footsteps overhead; there is an apartment overhead, and the sound is about as loud as you would expect for living in a lower-level apartment. Joe is very quick to respond to questions, which reduces any issues that might come up. I had some problem with the WiFi, and Joe replied quickly to help me troubleshoot the issue. Overall a smooth experience.

My sister and I were so comfortable in the space. We felt so very welcome from the variety of teas and coffee to the fresh flowers in each room. The mini fridge was big enough to hold our snacks and of course the coffee pot was a plus. The walk into town was quick and easy and we very much enjoyed the garden which was very private. I would come back again and again.

A resort-style feel. The house is really well maintained. The layout was nice and we felt like there was plenty of space. The entire home showed great care. The house was stocked with anything we could possibly need. We were pleasantly surprised to find a generous amount of snacks, drinks and breakfast staples provided free of charge. There were clear and helpful instructions/signs posted everywhere. The patio was a little oasis where we enjoyed our coffee in the morning. There was a large supply of books and games for the family. Everyone had a great time and we couldn't be more pleased. This home has my highest recommendation.

clean, quiet, private, well cared for garden/apartment space, beautiful setting& location ... gigi a host category of her own! ... gigi personally greeted with attitude so warm, welcoming after a long day on the road...in the a.m. no ordinary continental breakfast warm & handmade, colorful delightful artistic fruit arrangements.. gigi truly is a SuperHost not to be taken for granted ... grazie mille, gigi

Alexis is the consummate host and as always, we enjoyed celebrating the Holidays in his lovely home. Also, thanks Alexis for the goodies, and see you in July.

My Son an I did a 5 day stay. The place was very centrally located on the pacific coast. The place was very cozy, clean and comfortable with outstanding ocean views from everywhere in the cabin. Good parking for two vehicles. Weather was so so, but did not hindered us a bit. We hiked at Muir Woods, the overlook and the beach all within 5 minutes away. We were able to go to San Francisco multiple times 35 minutes to do half day lunches or dinners and Sausalito 20 minutes. Yeshi was very responsive when we communicated, but really needed little assistance. The home is older and very charming. It reminded me of my own house growing up. Would definitely stay here again.

Dylan & Alex’s place was a perfect place to stay while visiting SF! It felt very central and easy to get to a lot of places; and its proximity to Golden Gate Park was an added bonus! The backyard area was beautiful and felt like an escape from the city!

This is such a lovely studio. Super comfy and spotless. The bed is very comfy, the kitchenette was just right for making a quick breakfast, and I loved the deck - could have lounged on the deck chairs for days enjoying the sun and the view. The neighborhood is gorgeous. Quiet but inviting, with some very impressive architecture, and several fantastic little local parks. Everything is pretty steep in the area, and it makes you feel like you're in a different world from the rest of the city. Jan was very responsive and helpful, and we had exactly the relaxing weekend we needed.

We had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with all the essentials, including strong WiFi, parking, and bathroom amenities. The location made it easy to get into San Francisco while still having a quiet place to return to. Also great views and near to hiking. What really stood out, though, was the host’s incredible responsiveness. We had a lock issue during our stay, and they went above and beyond—driving an hour and a half to personally bring us a key to the side door to ensure we felt safe. That level of dedication and care made all the difference, and we truly appreciated it. Highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a convenient and well-hosted experience!

Very responsive and accommodated my request to stay extra days. Great location!

Second time staying here, would highly recommend for staying in SF. Clean, spacious and great value.

Shea’s Victorian home was amazing. It was such a beautiful home staying right in the Mission district. We loved our San Francisco stay and being able to walk to taquerias, coffee and parks.

Beautiful Gem!! The place is definitely worth staying at. Great to relax and connect with nature. Everything was available at my fingertips and made my stay even more memorable. I can’t wait to visit again!
